What are the Benefits of attending a Webinar? Would you prefer a webinar or a seminar?
Yes, I prefer webinars or a seminar because they are affordable, conventional and help us to get the knowledge that we need. We can get the lecture training from the professional people just by seating at one place.
There are lots of benefits of attending a webinar some of them are given below:
Webinar allow to become an expert in your field:
As a presenter, you become the expert. Webinar meetings are a great way to tout your experience and your professionalism to all of the participants that attend.
The flexibility and ease of webinar meetings allow you to host more sessions, which will provide more options for people to attend. With more attendees in your webinar meetings, you can expect word to spread much quicker than traditional meeting setting.
Even if you offer free webinar meetings, your audience will view you as an expert who is worthy of being listened to. The free component to the webinar does not cheapen the information that you are presenting.
No geographical barriers:
In-person meetings can substantially limit your reach. Not only is it expensive to fly people in for a meeting or presentation, but it also is not always logistically possible. This does not even begin to touch on the time factor and other issues that make in-person meetings impractical in many situations in today’s globally connected world. Webinar meetings provide an effective way around this by permitting you to communicate with potentially hundreds or thousands of people from anywhere in the world. Participants will love this feature as well, as they are now able to attend your presentation from the comfort of their own home or office.
Make Connections:
Networking and collaboration with like-minded people can lead to inspiration and a more powerful brand strategy. Webinars may not offer the benefits of opening night receptions and coffee break mixers in between sessions at a conference or trade show, but there are still tremendous opportunities to connect with the hosts and fellow attendees.
Direct contact with your target group
Reach and engage a very specific target group. Allow them to ask questions, or pose questions of your own to the participants. Thanks to the interaction during a webinar you gain insight into your target group. You can really get to know your audience, unlike during lower-quality webinars or physical meetings and events where attendees often merely listen passively.
Webinars save time and money: Long journeys involve travelling time and expenses, but a webinar eliminates the need to travel. Make it easier and cheaper for your target group to be engaged by your message. There are advantages for you as the ‘sender’ too; the costs are much lower than organising a physical event and hiring a venue, for example
Convenience:
Since Webinars take place over the Internet directly on your computer, there is no need to leave the office or factor in travel time. Because of this, many ag professionals are using this technology as a time-efficient method of training and delivering knowledge to their staff. Not available when the event is scheduled? No problem. Webinars on-demand allow you to view an archive of the event when it’s convenient for you. Mobile devices are also making it easier to attend Webinars. Being able to listen and/or view a session from your tablet or smartphone gives you the option to view them at any time, in any place.
2. How to be professional and yet have fun during a corporate party?
A corporate party is the perfect event to socialize with co-workers, make new acquaintances within the organization you work for and, if you’re lucky and sociable enough, even advance your career. However, all of the above is only possible if you know how to behave at parties of this kind.
Although corporate parties are organized to let the staff relax and have fun, they are still business events and require an appropriate conduct. So, lots of things you’re used to doing when partying with your friends will not be acceptable at the office party. Check out how to have fun and get the best out of the company holiday without damaging your professional reputation.
To be professional and yet to have fun during a corporate party one should follow some etiquettes. some e of them are;
Don’t drink to much: one should not drink too much in corporate party because you will be observed by many people. Being wild can lead to your dismissal, or months of shame in front of your co-workers and ruined relationships.
Don’t dress up like you’re going to a nightclub
Although this is a party, it’s still a work-related event. So, you should never put on attire that you wouldn’t wear at office. A tight dress or short shorts you’d put on when going out with friends isn’t the best idea. However, don’t go to extremes by putting on something which is too boring or too casual, like plain blue jeans and T-shirt. Since it’s a special event, you need to put on an evening dress or suit. Classy and elegant designs are the best bets.

Don’t avoid communication: you can communicate with other people who are attending party. Even if you are meeting people for the first time you can communicate with them and make the environment comfortable. In a casual atmosphere, you’ll probably find it easier to communicate and improve the relationships with those you work with. The best tactics is to talk to as many people as you can.
Feel free to joke :
Office parties are usually light-hearted events. Feel free to tell jokes, as long as you are sure they won't offend your coworkers or boss (or worse, his or her boss). Many people do not enjoy off-color jokes, so refrain from telling any. On a related note, you should also be wary of using foul language.
Don’t use phone too much in party:
Employers throw parties to reward their workers and give them time to socialize with each other. Put phone away and try to focus on the party. If you must check your phone occasionally, slip away to do so. Of course, keep your phone handy for taking pictures! Share them on social media later.
Keep your Guard Up
It is okay to relax and have fun. It's a party after all. But don't lose sight of the fact that you are still at work, even if the setting is different from the one you are in daily.Your boss is watching. Your co-workers are too. Don't show a side of yourself that could be embarrassing or cause their opinion of you to change for the worse. For example, don't share too much personal information if you wouldn't want it to be known in a professional setting.
Don’t behave like you are in office:
Never behave so professional like you are in office. Though you should follow some etiquette but be friendly to your employees, co-worker so that they won’t feel awkward. There are many ways you can enjoy a party being professional. You have to know your limit before doing any kind of activities.
3. Explain the importance of hierarchy in an organisation. Would you prefer having no hierarchy?
The hierarchy of authority in an organization is designed to benefit the company and the employees. The company grows with the strength of a competent managerial staff, and employees look to management to provide career development. A hierarchy is also a method of maintaining managerial integrity. Business organizations may have their own hierarchical level depending upon the need of their and structure of their organization.
No, I don’t prefer having no hierarchy. I prefer having hierarchy in organization because it helps in proper management of the organization. Some of the importance of hierarchy are;
Accountability:
If there is hierarchy in an organization employees’ position and responsibility is defined. Employees will have the sense of responsibility and will perform work effectively. They will get their position and be accountable for that. A clearly defined hierarchy creates a path of accountability for every project and activity within the company. For example, an accounts receivable associate reports to an accounting manager, who reports to the operations manager. If the accounts receivable system is consistently reporting erroneous information, then you can follow the hierarchy of authority to determine who is responsible for the errors.
Control:
If there is a proper hierarchy in organization then it would be easy to control the organizational work. Businesses that operate in markets where they are subject to compulsory standards or regulations, such as financial services or military supplies, need centralized control and tightly applied policies and procedures. Businesses that require creativity from working-level employees may want administrative control but don't need tight control over the work. They achieve better results if authority is decentralized.
Employee Development and Guidance :
Employee development happens at all levels of an organization. Employees look to the managerial staff to help develop work skills, the managers work with company executives to improve managerial performance, and the executives draw on the experience of company owners for business guidance. The hierarchy of authority helps an employee to understand who he is to receive guidance from, and it helps that employee to see where his manager is getting her career development from. This is why competence at all levels of the corporate hierarchy is important.
Providing a Clear Career Path:
The hierarchy of authority provides a clear career path for each employee in the organization. The outline of executive, managerial and supervisory positions within the company can help employees to determine their career goals and what kind of move up the corporate ladder they would like to take. Executives and managers can use the hierarchy as motivation for employees that show supervisory or managerial potential to perform at a high level of productivity.
Efficient Company Communication:
A hierarchy helps to establish efficient communication paths between employees, departments and divisions of the company. The manager of each department becomes the departmental administrator, and any information that is relevant to the department is given to the manager. The manager can either act on the information or delegate it to someone within her staff. Information can be effectively distributed through company managers rather than trying to contact each individual employee. The manager's understanding of her staff and the structure of her department makes her the ideal person to improve communication to her department.
